In this category you will find Motive socks. It is a Polish manufacturer. Accessories from this manufacturer are a combination of great quality and low price. Ideal for those who want to purchase a good product from a domestic manufacturer and thus support the development of the Polish branch of outdoor, trekking and survival.
The right socks are more than just a simple piece of material that we put on our feet. What do we actually use them for? A sock protects the foot from cuts, burns, abrasions, as well as from bacteria. It also provides better comfort when walking or running. In addition, it protects footwear from unpleasant odor.
In that case, why choose better models for activities like hiking, long hiking, climbing or walking in the woods? The foot tires more and is exposed to more stress precisely during such activities. Therefore, in addition to the right footwear, you should opt for better socks.
Motive's sock models may differ in height, material thickness, the material itself, and adhesion to the foot. What materials, then, does the manufacturer in question use for its socks? Like most - cotton, merino wool, acrylic, coolmax, polyester, polyamide. Of course, not all mixed to produce a single sock.
Motive socks made of merino wool are a premium product. The very addition of this material makes the sock more breathable and provides better thermal comfort. Merino wool is a versatile material. This means that it works well in all seasons, regardless of the temperature. Merino does a very good job of regulating thermal comfort. On the other hand, it is more expensive than other materials, so it is used less often and socks are more expensive. This is the only reason why many people opt out.
Cotton socks are very popular. However, this is not very good for long summer hikes, but will work well in winter. In summer, the leg sweats a lot, and unfortunately cotton absorbs water and is reluctant to give it away. In winter, on the other hand, the leg does not sweat so much, so there is nothing to prevent you from using them then.
Acrylic is also very popular, which is a plastic, but of good quality, that wicks away moisture very well and is pleasant to the touch.
To better absorb shock, Motive socks use a terry cloth interior. This may not seem very effective for long hikes, but every, even small, brick makes the result a successful, comfortable hike without chafing or chafing on the feet.
Another interesting addition is the PROLEN®Siltex material, which is usually between 15 and 20% of the composition and contains silver ions. This means that it acts to some extent as a deodorizer, and the sock does not catch bacteria as much. It is nevertheless worth using from time to time a special shoe cleaner with silver ions, which kills and inhibits the growth of bacteria.
Good trekking socks are the basis for a successful hike, long walk, climbing and other activities where the foot undergoes heavy strain and fatigue. Be sure not to underestimate this accessory and apply yourself to the purchase as you would to shoes. You can even venture to say that the sock is more important than the shoe itself, and it is best when one and the other are matched.
Remember, too, that taller socks work better in difficult terrain, wooded areas or simply in winter. In summer and on mild trails, it's worth choosing shorter socks made of breathable, moisture-wicking materials like acrylic or coolmax, and combine this with good boots.
